Through collection and interpretation, she explores queer identity, perception and desire. Her works "I Think I Want To Be As Beautiful as the Ocean (Jules) 1 & 2" at The Brown Building. Tarrah Aroonsakool is a queer, first-generation multi-disciplinary artist from San Diego, using watercolor not to paint a pretty picture of humanity, but an honest one, using found material and stylistic choices, while blending unconventional materials and the beauty of conventional realities. She uses common household items like cardboard, rice, tea, salt and coffee in her work. Ally Pizzo is a dark, figurative artist who uses mediums such as graphite, ink and watercolor to express themes of identity, depression and isolation. Many of the subjects in Ally's pieces are references of actors and models from the 1920s or self portraits. See their piece "Sacrifice" in person at The Brown Building. Xochi Perez is a queer, Latina film photographer based in San Diego using 35mm film. The photographs featured in this show were taken during the "dyke march" in New York City.
